What does it do?

----------------

-It removes the file size constraints of remote storage locations such as Amazon S3, Rackspace Cloud Files, Ninefold and Dropbox. For example, you cannot store files larger than 5GB in size on Amazon S3. You can now configure backup with `split_into_chunks_of(5000)` to tell Backup to split the entire backup file in to chunks of 5000 megabytes (5gb) before storing it to Amazon S3. So assuming your backup is 15GB in size, it will split the backup file in 3 chunks and upload them separately.
